This is true, but I also feel that intentionally doing a feminist theme is a lot more palatable than doing a women writers issue and taking it for granted that ladies will naturally want to write on lady subjects. I can see how it might look like a distinction without a difference, though. Continuing to call it 'Women in Fantasy' is not doing themselves any favors, either.
Of course I would feel still less hostile if they would follow it up with a women-only issue of werewolf stories (say) just to make it clear that they do not consider feminism to be YOUR PROBLEM, GIRLS. Like the housework, as you say.
